man i went down to the beach this afternoon for the first time in a few weeks and the black flies killed me. i stayed 20 min's and had to leave. what works to keep them away on the beach? does insect repellant work?
Cactus Juice. Get it at For the Health of It in Blue Mtn.
The flies will be gone as soon as the north wind dies down and the sea breeze comes back. I went for a swim around 3 pm and the wind was out of the south, no flies then.
I got eaten alive when the dog fly plane was spraying poison. The benefits were nominal compared to the risk associated with spraying poison randomly in the air for all to breath--human and animals alike.
Good riddance to the poison spraying. Now if the mosquito spraying could only be halted too.
